> -----------------  Processor State Information (HPMC) ------------------

An HPMC is a High Priority Machine Check, a condition generally signaled by
the processor when an event happens which prevents the CPU from continuing
operation.  These are probably always hardware problems.  I don't know how
to determine from your dump exactly where the problem is, though the
non-zero value in Bus Check relative to the other zero values might indicate
that the system got a non-recoverable parity error on one of the main system
buses.

Since it sounds like it has happened more than once, I'd say it's time to
place a hardware service call.

Cheers,

P.S. It may simply be that the Boa Constrictor has consumed all the Geckos,
requiring a resupply by your CE.  Until this is done, avoid inserting
fingers or other bodily parts in the DDS drive slot or other chassis
openings.
